Look, Mum, I'm on The Guardian's website!
Posted in Photography • 30 September 2010
A few weeks ago, my friend Jonathan took me up in his little two-seater plane, taking off from Bourn airfield (about seven miles west of Cambridge) and flying towards the city.
As well as various images of Cambridge from a more unusual angle, I also got a shot of a farmer cultivating his field. It was a really quick shot, just as we were beginning to turn for the approach to landing - but I really like the composition and colours.
The Guardian ran a readers' competition for photographs on the theme 'Lines'; while I didn't make the final four printed in the paper, I was featured in the top ten on The Guardian's website.

Fort William

We've recently been up to Fort William for a friend's wedding; three pictures from the trip grabbed my fancy.
A waterfall at the end of Glen Nevis
An orchid in the fields of the Glen
We came across a creepy woodland path full of toys, baubles and oddities. Grrrr.
The Lake District

Carrie and I went on our honeymoon to the Lake District, and spent a week walking, going to little pubs, and visiting the zoo.
A hawk-eyed lemur at the South Lakes Wildlife Park.
Why, what an enticing offer you make.
As good ideas go, probably not the most sensible.
Lost!
An Ames Room at the Museum of Optical Illusions. Very, very strange.
